Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Queen Anne style furniture emerged in early eighteenth-century England, characterised by restrained ornamentation, graceful cabriole or bracket feet, rich wood veneers like walnut, and balanced proportions.

Traditional kneehole desks were constructed using native hardwoods, primarily walnut or mahogany veneers over oak or pine carcases, accompanied by cast brass hardware such as drop handles and escutcheons.

Authentic period pieces show evidence of hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine drawer linings, secondary wood age oxidation, original brassware witness marks, and natural shrinkage cracks in the veneer.

In corporate or residential spaces, contrast the dark walnut tones of a kneehole desk with modern minimalist lighting, simple contemporary seating, and neutral wall colours to create an eclectic focal point.

Apply high-grade beeswax sparingly along the grain twice a year, avoid direct sunlight and radiator proximity to prevent veneer lifting, and dust regularly with a soft dry cloth.
